Let's trade! My 2 nishijin fixers for your 1 restored
I would like to trade the 2 (two) pachinko machines that I have for 1 (one) that is restored.
1.)The first machine is a "NISHIJIN" super DX SHIROI KAMOME, from what I've seen on the web, this one looks like it's a "model" C. This machine appears to have some sort of "golf" them. There is a golfer swinging a club... a laughing bird, the word "can", another bird with what looks like he's being "hit" with the ball, and an interesting hole in the middle with what looks like different areas for the pachinko ball to go into. I haven't quite figured it out but I haven't seen any pachinko machines with this design before. This machine has a power inverter on the back and it looks like all the lights work. I have a cheap bit of glass I slid into the face to test to see if the flipper works and it does. Some of the flowers stick once and a while... but the it appears that all the parts are there. The payout works where there are plenty of balls in the tray... but sometimes the tray does feed, again, cleaning issues. I started to clean it a bit. It looks like all aspects of this machine work.. there is something else on the back... looks like a motor of some kind... or a switch, not sure... haven't tested that part... it might have something to do with the center hole. It's really kind of cool, but it's more than I want to invest effort into and I wouldn't want to mess it up where someone else can do it right. I think this machine just really needs some good cleaning and some minor adjustments, maybe some touch up paint? There is a stand for this one and it stands on it's own. I don't have any plexiglass so this machine will need that as well. For the golf collector, this might fetch a good price once restored.
2.) The second machine is a "NISHIJIN" super deluxe SHIROI KAMOME. From what I've seen on the web, this machine looks like it's a "model" B. This machine appears to have a "lobster" theme. Right above the lobster is the word "EBIRA". I slid the cheap bit of glass I have into the frame and tested it.. all of the flowers work great... some of the pins are a little bent and catch a ball once in a while... with the exception of the ball tray being slightly cracked... I think this machine just needs a serious cleaning, plexiglass, and a stand, maybe a touch of paint here and there also. There is one foot on the bottom, I had to prop the other side up with a cassette tape case, but it worked enough for the photos.
I'd like to trade BOTH of these machines for one machine that's fully restored, in a nice case, and ready to go. Send me photos of what you've got that you'd like to offer in trade. I'm really just wanting a nice machine to play without paying any more money. If you've got something nice to trade and will absorb the cost of shipping, I'll include a signed copy of my cartoon book expressing my great appreciation for your trade as well.
